Except the Naughton news. I think he will struggle to come up.
More of an In Bruges guy?

Gee it would be great to have JJ back based upon his renewal as a speedy and clever player in forward half last year. Given his history with hammys and the inevitable cold weather in Ballarat would it be better to wait until week after? Is it true hamstrings are more susceptible to pinging in cold weather?

Re: Injury List - 2022
JJ did some impressive things in last years final series when he came into the team after the Bombers game. He kicked a goal in each game. He was tough, he kicked some goals with his pace than no one else could have kicked and was a solid contributor. Definiltey a step up from what our bottom few are offering at the moment.

His injury is to a calf though?
I’d bring him in.

Thx MM. Yes, I know but given his history and cold weather and long lay-off I thought it might be an increased level of risk.

I'm no medical expert but I'm pretty sure if you warm up sufficiently it will largely mitigate the risk of muscle injuries due to cold weather. Also the forecast for Ballarat on Saturday is 16 which isn't really too cold at all for footy.
It sounds like they have been really quite conservative with JJ and slowly built him back up so if they deem him ready to go I think the risk is fairly minimal.

Hmmm… well, also that our top end are very good and we can win matches just off them, even if the final 3-4 picked aren’t AFL standard and we’re missing some key players.

INJURY UPDATE l Round 11
The latest injury news ahead of our trip to WA.
The Western Bulldogs could welcome back a host of stars in time for their clash against West Coast at Optus Stadium on Saturday night.
Over the past fortnight, several players have been affected by the flu, with duo Taylor Duryea and Tim English recovering well over the weekend.
“Taylor and Tim were able to complete a game like training session on the weekend,” Head of Sports Medicine, Chris Bell said.
“Both players are back to full energy and knocking down the door to be considered this week.”
“If both get through training this week like I expect, both will return to availability.”
“Jason Johannisen is a day or two behind (with a similar illness) but has turned the corner and is back into a full training model.”
“We will determine JJ’s plan and if he pulls on the jumper over the coming days.”
After breaking his collarbone against Port Adelaide three weeks ago, Cody Weightman is a chance to feature at some level this week.
“Cody has progressed faster than expected following his collarbone fracture,” Bell said.
“He has regained full function and strength of his shoulder and the surgeon is happy with his progress.”
“He still needs to tick some boxes throughout this week and get through a solid main training session on Wednesday before we decide if he returns to availability this weekend.”
In more positive news for the Bulldogs, the Club came through both AFL and VFL games without any serious injury concerns.

Good news and a dilemma for match committee.
Hannan concussion must be pretty bad

Re: Injury List - 2022
Bruce still 4-5 weeks, when he was 4-5 weeks last week. I guess in some ways, that far out it doesn't really matter, but I like counting them down
It'd be good to get him back not long after the bye as we hit a real tough patch of matches.

I thought they were targeting the week after the bye for Bruce & McLean but it's stagnated with no updates
If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.

Re: Injury List - 2022
Has Martin missed more games than he's actually played for us?
I questioned the trade at the time and it's getting worse. We didn't give up much, but I mean ... every other week he's sore, injured, has the flu or missing.
